Can We Talk About Boomertowne?

I would like to hear everyone's true thoughts about Boomertowne. It is the truth that allows others to know if a site is worth the time and effort. I have been there and earned a few points, but have not had the time to spend that I would like to if my Gather friends think it is worth the efforts.

So, let's talk about Boomertowne....all thoughts welcome...and desired!

I enjoy BT, and I especially enjoy the rewards. With the help of my fellow gatherers, I have now found a system that works for me.

Boomertowne is probably the easiest way to make money online in my opinion. 1500 points a day in 8 days gets you a 25.00 gift card to target and I do think thats awesome.

It is a bit boring but hey.. it only takes me about an hour to get it done if I do that only.. to me thats not to bad since I am SAHM anyways!

I think its fun reading some of the comments and all though!

It's growing on me, but I'm really HATING the glitches!

The points do add up fast, but it still takes me a couple to a few hours to max out my points for the day.

Tiffany, I make money faster here on Gather than on Boomertowne, so I'd have to disagree that it's the easiest way to make money.

I've earned two $25 gc's there so far, but it's slow going somedays. The site has problems and I never seem to get points for submitting recipes, quotes or jokes. I'll stick with it for the rewards.

I find it very boring. But, I still go back and do a few things to get the points and then leave it. I wish there were more games and interesting ways to earn the points.
Mary Ann Slavcheff Feb 12, 2008, 7:05pm UTC
it looks interesting, but i have not spent much time there.

I held off on Boomertowne for awhile, but I joined Sunday...and have a little over 3,000 points so far...not even knowing what I'm doing or how to navigate around. That was in just about an hour's time playing with it each day. Once I get a 'system' down; maxing at 1,500 points a day; I figure I can make a $50 Visa card in 17 days. That's $100 in just a little over a month. I'm not about to turn down $1,100 in free cash over the course of a year. It may be a little boring just clicking back and forth, but for that kind of reward; I'll put up with it being a little monotonous.
Tiffany G. Feb 12, 2008, 7:05pm UTC
I cant make 25.00 here on gather in 8 days! BT I can and in only 1 hour. 2 at max if I do toher things at the same time! I gather ALL day and maybe get close in half a month! I normally get 50.00 a month on gather or close to it.

I'd like to know more about it. I found one gather friend so far and that is my only connection. I don't know what I'm doing there. Can anyone tell me where the guidelines are. I just joined a few days ago and I'm not sure how to communicate or post. I do have fun playing the lucky letters game and treasure hunt but those things could take all day.
Laurun M. Feb 12, 2008, 7:10pm UTC
Gee Rob, I wish you'd tell me how you figured that out so fast.

There's lots of glitches but it's easy and fast to earn points. I've already cashed out for a $50 visa card on my own account and my husband cashed out for one from his too.
Sarah G. Feb 12, 2008, 7:11pm UTC
I just cashed out today for my first $25 Target card. I wrote an article on it today. I think it is pretty easy going.
☆ Æ’åitÄ¥ ☆ Feb 12, 2008, 7:11pm UTC
I earn most of my points by clicking on the videos, asking others to connect with me and sending messages to my connections.
☆ Æ’åitÄ¥ ☆ Feb 12, 2008, 7:16pm UTC
By the way, for anyone that would like to add me, my user name is branson555 and my husband Travis is travisb.

My mom and dad are also members there and my mom, Bonii, is farkles and my dad, Rick, is rharris.

Thanks!
Holly G. Feb 12, 2008, 7:20pm UTC
I joined about a month ago, and I can't really figure out how to get 1500 points a day...there isn't enough things to do really...(well, at least not a lot of discussions, you can't do anywhere near what you can on Gather!)but in a month I have gotten 6,000 points and I haven't done much. Can anyone tell me what it is they do to max out there points each day?
Jennifer Neff Feb 12, 2008, 7:21pm UTC
I can make $25 in 8 days on Gather and with less time invested than on BT. So it's hard for me to say it's easier. I need at least 2-3 hours to do BT and that's if I do nothing else but BT.
It's not a bad site. It's boring, but not bad.

I'm not sure it's the fastest, but it's easy. :)
Amy S. Feb 12, 2008, 7:24pm UTC
i just signed up today and am still trying to figure it out! please connect with me if you are on there. i am rogie12!
Holly, do a search for friends, and ask for connections. 21 pages of 10 friends is 1500 points.
Mary K. Feb 12, 2008, 7:26pm UTC
I like it and I have already earned prizes from it.
Tiffany G. Feb 12, 2008, 7:27pm UTC
Wish I could make that on gather Jennifer.. I comment so much I go crazy and post things of course and get lots a comments..

I make most my points on BT by doing the few games and sending a comment to my connections! I of course use the same comment and copy and paste which I know is what most people do cause all the comments are the same!

Here is an article with 89 comments and most are people giving their BT name this will help you add people!!

It's growing on me. I have cashed out for the $25 gift card and am over half way to getting enough points for a second one. The most points I've gotten in a day 1,200 which was today.

I'm joanninct.
Amy S. Feb 12, 2008, 7:29pm UTC
thanks tiffany!
Jennifer Neff Feb 12, 2008, 7:35pm UTC
I make points on BT with the games, requesting friends adding suggestions and photos to MY Towne (I choose towns I've been to rather than where I live, lol)

I also send messages to my friends but I rarely copy and paste them as I do respond to any questions asked and whatever they wrote to me.
Karen M. Feb 12, 2008, 7:48pm UTC
I am glad to see you asked mom...not get going and get yourself busy on BT...
Margaret G. Feb 12, 2008, 9:10pm UTC
I don't have a whole lot of time,but I log in at work and read the news,etc. I don't get near the max points every day,but I figure it's free money,so it's worth it to me.
Wanda Julian Feb 13, 2008, 3:30am UTC
I like it on there. I do earn more on ther than on gather.
Michelle W. Feb 13, 2008, 9:35am UTC
I am racking up on the points daily since I joined a few days ago. Granted, I don't everything I could to get points, but then again, I don't worry too much.
Kim M. Feb 13, 2008, 2:25pm UTC
It's like anything else, you get out of it what you put into it. I don't have much time, so I've never maxed out. I love playing the games there, so I focus on those. They're nice and relaxing after work!
Carla B. Feb 22, 2008, 2:27am UTC
I like boomertowne. I manage to get the full 1500 points each day without any problems. I don't know how long it takes me, because I do it in 10-15 minute increments while playing netwinner or checking email in between. So far I've received $100 in giftcards and have requested a $100 Visa.
